You may feel withdrawn today and uncomfortable in situations that require you to interact socially with others. Since you are likely in a reserved mood, you may be disinclined to speak your mind during casual conversation or share your ideas with the individuals you spend time with each day. Though you may question whether you are alienating the people who care about you by keeping to yourself, you’ll likely feel more at ease alone. Spending time in a solitary, peaceful, and private place such as your home or a favorite natural spot can help you restore your emotional equilibrium. As you ponder your life in solitude today, you can restore the boundaries between yourself and the world and once again feel like a whole person.

Solitude affords us a wonderful and serene way to reconnect with the people we are with after long stretches of time in which we must focus on worldly matters. In our own company, away from the cacophony of the modern life, we are free to do and think whatever we please, released from the societal dictates that require us to play certain roles and adopt certain personas. The quiet surrounds us like an embrace, encouraging us to undertake thoughtful explorations of our inner landscapes. Our innermost thoughts become audible in the peaceful atmosphere of aloneness in which we immerse ourselves, and we can once again discern the small voice of wisdom that originates in our souls. As you sink into solitude today, you’ll rediscover who you really are.
